Lyrics The Prodigal's Song - Petra

The Prodigal's Song

I’m only happy when I’m with you
And living life the way you show me
Whenever I’m apart, I grow a colder heart
I only feign my love for you
And if a day goes by without speaking
I love like I don’t really need you
But in my heart I find I recognize the lie
My every breath I draw from you
And I still find you true, pulling me back to you
To you I will run
The prodigal son
Coming back home again to you
Open your arms
And into your heart
I’m folded in love again with you
And every moment that I’ve wasted
Chasing after my own dreaming
I know you will forgive and wipe away the tears
For all the lonely foolish years
And I will try to be true, living each day with you
All that I am
And all that I have
And all I can be
Is found in you
